The US XV Corps was an army corps of the US Army that existed from 15 February 1943 to 31 March 1946. Wade H. Haislip commanded the army corps from 1944 to 1945, leading the corps as a part of the US Third Army during the campaigns in Western Europe and Central Europe. The corps first took part in the fighting for Normandy and then pushed through France and into Germany, and the corps would end the war in southern Germany. The corps would be repeatedly activated and deactivated until its final dissolution in 1968.
